Question Is there an "ideal" time of day to take tykerb?

just started tykerb/herceptin combo and wondering if there is a better time of day to take the tykerb? morning before breakfast or at bedtime? I see there are many that have had experience with these drugs and would appreciate your feedback. thank you.
